August 02, 2022 09:00 - 19 minutes - 17.6 MBBird Scooters has become a penny stock because VCs aren’t paying for half your ride anymore.

August 01, 2022 09:00 - 19 minutes - 18.1 MBApple just hired a Lamborghini vet… and we think Car Play is Apple's Trojan Car Horse.

July 29, 2022 09:00 - 19 minutes - 17.8 MBThe biggest business battle of the summer may be over a $9 bottle of Trader Joe’s sunscreen (vs Supergoop). JetBlue just acquired Spirit Airlines so we’re breaking down why we’ve ignored the last 97 headlines about it.

July 28, 2022 09:00 - 18 minutes - 17.3 MBPuma gets no attention as the 3rd biggest sports apparel company, but it’s winning by playing where others don’t want to.

For years, the only way to get Glossier’s lip gloss was at Glossier, until now — Glossier is coming to Sephora’s 2K stores.
